So guys, I figured we could use a Marvel Zombies thread.

I just read Marvel Zombies vs. Army of Darkness #1 and it is pretty awesome.

My only question is:
I'm sure I saw a preview page from some Marvel Zombies book where it is revealed that the infection was caused by an infected Superman coming into their dimension, so is MZvsAoD in another Zombies universe, or what?

    No see, this picture I saw didn't have the Sentry, it was fucking Superman.

    Red and Blue tights and spit curl to boot.

    I seem to remember that the original plan was for it to be Superman, but they chickened out at the last second and re-coloured him into the Sentry.

    Yeah, looking back at the panels it's pretty obvious it was changed.

    Not showing the chest symbol, etc.

    Ash's first meeting with the Avengers is pretty funny.
    So was Ash helping out the Wrecking Crew. "All in a day's work for the Ash Man!" ... "Oops."

    Well it was originally supposed to be Superman from another dimension, which would've been fucking awesome.

    The first person to spot zombie Sentry was Ash, in a heaven-like place where aforementioned zomb-Sentry chowed down on spirit-folk.

    Well, if places like Heaven, Hell and Limbo are just more dimensions along the line of the all the Earth-XXXXX chain, then it'd be easy enough for a Marvel character to get there.


    Although this is the first case I can remember of Heaven being in a Marvel book, they tend to stay away from any modern religious stuff.

    Gotta love how even in the present day you can't rub against the religion grain and stay in buisness. If Marvel had stuck to the "Angels and demons are really mutants" they would have been up to their necks in shit with every religous group ever.

    And that would mean less money coming in, can't have that now can we. *dissapointed eye roll*

    i kind of doubt it. i don't think the type of person who would get really outraged by that kind of thing pays a whole lot of attention to comics

    by way of example- did the ending of preacher generate a lot of controversy? i never heard about it if it did, which is why i think what i thunk up there

    What? No. You're talking shit.

    The way "angels and demons" are used in both Marvel and DC is already heretical enough to piss off any conservative Christian group who might bother to pay attention. The reason why that whole "Angels and Demons are really mutants thing" didnt stick is because it was written by Chuck Austin in a lame-ass story line, and making them just mutants would be a massive waste of the storytelling power of using actual supernatural elements.

    I mean, I hate to rob you of an opportunity to superior, but you're fucking high.

    It was kinda cool when they did that in Earth X, but that was all possible-future stuff, so it's safe to fuck around with it there.

    Guys, guys! This is about zombies dammit!

    AOD vs. MZ 1 wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. I hope they develop the story more, as the first issue seems to just be a re-hash of MZ with "LOL BOOMSTICK" thrown in.

    Yeah, gotta say... Ash did not seem nearly bad-ass enough for me. Frankly, he was kind of whiney... But, I will still buy every issue because, hey, I love Army of Darkness and I loved Marvel Zombies.

    The thought occurs, this series might answer the question of why Zombie Sentry isn't present in any of the other Marvel Zombie stories, outside of the flashback to the first infection.

    So, Ash vs. Zombie Sentry?

    Tremendous.
